    Old pillies work well, mate. So too, pineapple rind and watermelon rind.
    Any depth from 5 to 25 ft.

    hey marty most of my catches have been landbased so i dont think depth matters a lot. Just always look for logs, trees etc.
    Ive always caught plenty using rockmelon, sweet potato, pumpkin, corn cobs... any veges really as i believe they are mainly vegetarian. Others do use mullet, pillies, cat food and even soap will attract them. There are loads of threads on here about what others use as bait. They are not fussy at all.
    Im waiting for a good downpour before i bother going after them again, so hope you get some rain before your trip.

    20 foot is the magic number for me and i only use rockmelon. Set your pots around some structure, I usually look for a rocky area or sunken timber.
